Another is: DerbyJS, Racer, and ShareDB who have been fighting for this future for what feels like forever, but meteorjs just torched it from a popularity perspective, in the the event-driven server-side rendering realm. Despite giving a much worse end user experience, it was more popular with developers. Is Lever really the only company using Derby? https://github.com/derbyjs/derby https://github.com/derbyjs/racer https://github.com/share/sharedb https://derbyjs.com/

>I'd be very interested if anyone has any experience using React to render initial page layouts like this. I'm actually working on an app architecture (within a toy project) that does just this; it uses react-router-component for the routing (so routes work both on both ends without environment specific stuff) and the api is built with racer (https://github.com/codeparty/racer) so that data access on the client or server is unified too Repo: https://github.com/gnijor/Reaxer Toy app in question: http://reaxer.nodejitsu.com/ (also contains a keyframed animation written as a react component for fun)
